CHAPTER 437 BELIEVE THAT SHE’S NOT DEAD

"I'll talk to my grandmother in a moment. She won't be angry," Sam promised.

Since he said so, Yvonne didn't say anything about it a s she was very concerned about Henry. She hummed," Okay."

"Sit tight then. I'll speed up or we'll lose Mr. Lancaster i n a moment," Sam reminded her.

Yvonne grabbed the seat belt in front of her. "I'm sitting still."

Sam hummed and he stepped down the accelerator to chase after Henry.

After nearly ten minutes, Yvonne looked at the familiar scenery outside the window and frowned. " This is the direction to the hospital.”

Could Henry's destination be the hospital?

Was he sick?

Yvonne's heart sank when she thought of it. Her hand on the seat belt tightened and her eyes were filled with worries.

Sam glanced at her through the corner of his eyes." Don’t think too much about it. Perhaps Mr. Lancaster has something to do over there." "What can he do at the hospital?" Yvonne was still

worried.

Wasn’t the purpose of going to the hospital was to see a doctor?

"You’ll know when we get there." Sam turned the steering wheel and he asked, "Do you want to show up in front of Mr. Lancaster?"

Yvonne thought for a few seconds. "I'll show up if he’s really seeing a doctor. If not, I’ll wait first."

"That's fine. He just parked his car." Sam looked at the Mercedes that stopped in front of them and parked his car in a parking space in front of the hospital.

Yvonne loosened her seat belt and said, "Let’s get out o f the car too."

With that, she put on the hood of her hoodie, opened the door, and then followed Henry sneakily.

When Sam saw her acting like a thief, he couldn't help laughing, but followed her along.

All the way to the surgical department, Yvonne watched Henry enter Shane's office. She trotted to Shane’s office, intending to eavesdrop on whether Henry came to see a doctor or to see Shane.

"Henry, why are you here?" Shane’s voice was first heard.

Yvonne leaned her ear against the door frame to hear clearly. Sam, who was standing behind her, couldn’t help taking a picture of her. He was going to send it to his grandmother later.

"There's something I need to ask you." This time, it was Henry's voice with a trace of urgency.

Yvonne was relieved.

It turned out that he wasn't sick and he wasn't here to see a doctor.

"What's the problem?" Shane put down the pen in his hand and raised his head, revealing a tired face.

He hadn’t rested since yesterday until now. He had been numbing himself with work and kept himself busy to dilute his pain.

This way, he didn’t have to think about that person he liked and whether she was gone.

Henry didn't care whether Shane was tired or not. He punched the desk with his fist and asked in a deep voice, "Is there any incubation period for kidney failure?"

"Kidney failure?" Shane raised his eyebrows suspiciously. "Why are you suddenly asking this?"

Outside the door, Yvonne nodded as well. She wanted t o know why he suddenly asked about this too.

"Yvonne." Her shoulder was suddenly tapped twice.

Yvonne lowered her voice and looked at Sam. "What's wrong?"

"I'm going to call my grandmother. If I don't come back in a while, you can wait for me in the car." Sam gave her the car key.

Yvonne took it over. "I got it. You should go ahead."

Sam rubbed her hair and left with his mobile phone.

"Why do you always rub my hair? Is my hair so nice to rub?" Yvonne pursed her lips and murmured unhappily.

In the office, Shane continued asking, “Henry, don’t you tell me that you have kidney failure?"

"No!” Henry pursed his lips unhappily, “Just tell me if there’s an incubation period!"

"Yes, but this kind of situation is rare. Generally, kidney failure that has an incubation period is a hidden disease. It’s not visible before the disease onset and it can go undetected during checkups. However, this kind of kidney failure is generally genetic," Shane answered him in detail.

Thinking it wasn’t enough, and he added, "As for the incubation period, each family is different. Some are several years, some may be more than a decade. In short, during the incubation period,

the person is as healthy as a normal person. But once the incubation period has passed, the disease will show up immediately and the rate of kidney failure is faster than ordinary kidney failure patients!"

After hearing it, Henry felt as if he had been battered heavily with a hammer and he was about to fall down.

Fortunately, there was a desk in front of him. He quickly held the desk and didn't fall.

But he held the desk too hard that it moved. The desk legs rubbed the smooth floor tiles, making a harsh sound.

When Yvonne heard this, she almost couldn't help but barge in. In the end, however, she was rational enough to take a step back.

"What’s the matter with you, Henry?” Shane saw that Henry doesn't seem alright. He immediately stood up from his chair and helped him to the sofa to sit down.

Henry supported his forehead and his voice was hoarse, "I'm fine."

He was agitated for a moment when he heard the description of kidney failure. It was similar to what Jacqueline had said.

"Are you really fine? Your face is turning pale." Shane stretched out his hand worriedly, trying to touch his forehead.

Before he could touch it, Henry stopped him. "It's okay. Do you still have Yvonne's body checkup record here?"

"Yes. What's the matter?" Shane's glasses reflected the light.

Yvonne's fingers curled on the doorframe and she felt a little uneasy.

What happened? Why did he mention her all of a sudden?

"Jacqueline told me that Laura had this hereditary kidney failure, so I came here to ask you. Since you have Yvonne's body checkup report, can you tell if she has inherited this kind of kidney failure?" Henry stared at Shane.

Shane's eyes widened. "What? You said Yvonne's biological mother..."

Henry nodded. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Outside the door, Yvonne covered her mouth. Her pupils trembled and her mind buzzed.

If her understanding was right, they were saying that her mother had hereditary kidney failure and she inherited it.

How could it be...

"Henry, this isn't a joke. What if Jacqueline is lying to you?" Shane was surprised and looked at Henry with a serious expression.

Henry rubbed his temples to soothe his painful head that was about to explode. "That's why I've asked Joe t o check the medical history of Laura's family. If it turns out that Laura’s family doesn't have this genetic disease, then I won't let Jacqueline off easily."

"I understand what you mean, but I'm telling you clearly that I've seen Yvonne’s medical record and there weren't any problems with the previous body checkup. So I don't know whether Yvonne has inherited the disease unless I ask Yvonne to come in

person and specially check on her kidney.”

Speaking of this, Shane took off his glasses and revealed a pair of gloomy eyes. "It's a pity that she won’t come back. She's dead..."

'We couldn't even find her body.’

"She's not dead!” Henry stood up suddenly and stared a t Shane with a bad expression. "I believe she’s not dead. She’s just lost and I’ll find her."

"Henry...” Yvonne was deeply moved by the man’s words.

Shane stood up as well. "How can you be sure that she's not dead? Where could've she gone in such a big fire?"
